"The Iraqi government's decision on the case is definite and the decision has been made based on the country's constitution because based on the law no armed group is allowed to be present on Iraq's soil," Abawi noted.

Fars NewsA senior Iraqi foreign ministry official underlined Iraqi government's determination to expel the terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) from Iraq's soil, stressing that they have no option but to leave the country.

"The sole option for the members of the MKO is to go out of Iraq. They will have no other option," Acting Deputy of Iraqi Foreign Minister Labid Abawi told FNA on Wednesday.

"The Iraqi government's decision on the case is definite and the decision has been made based on the country's constitution because based on the law no armed group is allowed to be present on Iraq's soil," Abawi noted.

Earlier, Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari said that Baghdad will definitely expel the terrorist group from Iraq's soil by the near future.

Speaking at a joint press conference with his visiting Iranian counterpart Ali Akbar Salehi in Baghdad, Zebari said, "MKO's expulsion from Iraq by the end of 2011 is definite."

"Based on agreements, MKO members will be expelled from Iraq's soil at the end of 2011 and should be transferred to a third country," the Iraqi minister reiterated.
